The concept of the rooms at The Deck is quirky. The rooms are spacious and very clean, with everything you need. The location was so peaceful and relaxing and close to the barrage for an easy walk to Cardiff Bay. The breakfasts were delicious!

The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable. The restaurant and pub was amazing. The food was very, very good (the best we had in the UK). We didn't need to find a place for dinner when the best restaurant is at the Inn. The breakfast was outstanding. Did I mention how nice the staff was? They could not have been nicer. It is nice there is parking behind the Inn. Highly recommended!

    The unit was very comfortable with great facilities including a fully equipped kitchen and a washing machine. It had been updated, was very clean in a great location. The owner was very easy to contact and dealt with a minor issue straight away. He also provided lots of information about what to do/see in the area. Free parking on the street.

    Rear entrance access lift was great for me and location was perfect for the Nothing But Thieves Concert at Cardiff Castle I went to with one of my Sons. The hotel name sounds posh! I got a good deal on the price as a budget room with two single beds which was upgraded to a double round room with a good view of the city!
